Answer: 2 2/3

Step-by-step explanation: transform mixed number into improper fraction (-7/3)

turn -5 into fraction (-5/1)

multiply -5/1 by 3 (multiply denominator and numerator) you get this: -15/3

then subtract the numerators

-7/3 - (-15/3) = 8/3

simplify 8/3 to 2 2/3

If I chose a number uniformly from the integers from 1 to 25, calculate the conditional probability that the number is a multipl

topjm [15]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If I choose a number from the integers 1 to 25, the total number of integers I can pick is the total outcome which is 25. n(U) = 25

Let the probability that the number chosen at random is a multiple of 6 be P(A) and the probability that the number chosen at random is is larger than 18 be P(B)

P(A) = P(multiple of 6)

P(B) = P(number larger than 18)

A = {6, 12, 18, 24}

B = {19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}

The conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18 is expressed as P(A|B).

P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)

Since probability = expected outcome/total outcome

A∩B = {24}

n(A∩B) = 1

P(A∩B) = n(A∩B)/n(U)

P(A∩B) = 1/25

Given B = {19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25}.

n(B) = 7

p(B) = n(B)/n(U)

p(B) = 7/25

Since P(A|B) = P(A∩B)/P(B)

P(A|B) = (1/25)/(7/24)

P(A|B) = 1/25*25/7

P(A|B) = 1/7

<em>Hence the conditional probability that the number is a multiple of 6 (including 6) given that it is larger than 18 is 1/7</em>

Solve 28 + 7y =91<br><br>Y=.....

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

$y = 9$

Step-by-step explanation:

$28 + 7y = 91 \\ 7y = 91 - 28 \\ 7y = 63 \\ \frac{7y}{7} = \frac{63}{7} \\ y = 9$

What is the explicit formula for this sequence?<br><br> −7, −4, −1, 2, 5, …

VikaD [51]

The explicit formula for the sequence is 3n -10

<h3>What is an Arithmetic Sequence ?</h3>

An arithmetic sequence is a series of terms which have common difference between its consecutive numbers.

The sequence given is

−7, −4, −1, 2, 5, …

The common difference between each term is d =3

-4-(-7) = 3

-1-(-4) =3

The nth term for a sequence is given by

$\rm T_n = a +(n-1)d$

Here a is the first term = -7

n is the no. of terms = n

d is the common difference = 3

Therefore the equation will be

$\rm T _n = -7 + (n-1) * 3$

$\rm T _n$ = -7 +3n -3

$\rm T _n$ = 3n -10

Therefore the explicit formula for the sequence is 3n -10 .

A new American graduate is contemplating buying a

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The best option is to buy Japanese Car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fuel usage per year is 150000/ 8 = 18750 miles per year

Fuel cost (year 1 -8) = $3.0, $3.06, $3.12, $3.18, $3.25, $3.312, $3.38, $3.5

Japanese Car:

Fuel usage 18750 / 23 = 815 * $3 = $2446

Fuel charges (year 1 -8) = $2445, $2494, $2623, $2758. $2900, $3050, $3207, $3372

Repair Cost (year 1 - 8) = $700, $721, $742, $764, $787, $811, $835, $860

Insurance cost (Year 1 - 8) = $700, $714, $728, $742, $757, $772, $788, $804

Present value of cost at 5% = 24674.07

Cost of car is $30,000

Total cost = $54674.07

Amercian Car:

Cost $35,000

Fuel usage 18750/20 = 937.5 * $3 per gallon = $2812.5.

Fuel charges (year 1 -8) = $2812, $2913, $2986, $3011. $3098, $3124, $3176, $3208

Repair Cost (year 1 - 8) = $800, $894, $921, $978, $1109, $1176, $1207, $1301

Insurance cost (Year 1 - 8) = $800, $827, $876, $898, $908, $932, $954, $934

Present value of cost at 5% = 25302.18

Cost of car is $35,000

Total cost = $60302.

German Car:

Cost = $45,000

Fuel usage 18750 / 21 = 892 * $3 = $2678

Fuel charges (year 1 -8) = $2679, $2732, $2786, $2842. $2899, $2987, $3077, $3171

Repair Cost (year 1 - 8) = $1000, $1040, $1081, $1124, $1169, $1216, $1265, $1316

Insurance cost (Year 1 - 8) = $850, $867, $884, $902, $920, $938, $957, $976

Present value of cost at 5% = 27105.73

Cost of car is $45,000

Total cost = $72105.

What is the solution, if any, to the inequality |3x|≥0?

Murljashka [212]

The inequality is all real numbers.

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

A statement of an order relationship—greater than, greater than or equal to, less than, or less than or equal to—between two numbers or algebraic expressions.

Given:

|3x|≥0

3x = 0

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable

x= 0/3

x=0 = RHS
